Description Aleksander Adamowski 2007-07-26 15:44:20 UTC 
Description of problem:

The redhat build configuration of mailman specifies a predefined list of groups
mail spoolers typically run as (mail, postfix, mailman, nobody, daemon). The
list doesn't contain the group "courier", which is typically used by Courier MTA
(http://www.courier-mta.org/).

Please, add courier to this list - I can see no harm in this and making Mailman
work with courier won't  require a rebuild of RPM.

Sample patch attached.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.1.9-2

Comment 2 Tomas Smetana 2007-08-01 09:49:15 UTC 
I failed to find the Courier package in the RHEL package collection. I don't see
much reason in adding references to an usupported software to the spec file. If
someone installs Courier, he can reconfigure Mailman.
